Siege won't end. Need Tips on how to fix.
« on: May 05, 2017, 12:13:08 am »

So I manage to get a Necromancer Siege, after I killed them all, it still shows up as a Siege... and it isn't ending..

I have tried Scouting the borders with my military.. nothing

I have full-heal'd some of the corpses and killed it to see if it worked... nothing..

I have killed most of the wildlife (besides the magma crabs)... nothing happened..

I checked "Others" tab and nothing shows up.



And prior to the siege I planned on retiring the fort to start adventure mode too... and now I cant because of this.

Only hilarious thing about this is, 1 of the necromancers dropped the book of life and death XD. So soon this fort will be filled with necromancers, how would u know if someone becomes a necromancer, would they show an icon?

The rate of bugged sieges of various kinds increased a lot with 0.42.X+ for unknown reasons. Firstly, normal sieges last either a season or a year (which one is probably random) unless the siegers are routed, so I would start with waiting until a year has passed.

If the siege tag still doesn't go away, I'd backup the save and try the methods described in this thread http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=163671.0.
